Well-received and appreciated

As a self-publisher author, I need all the help I can get to stand out from the books released from the titan publishing houses. Luckily, with the incredible secrets and methods outlined in this fantastic release, I am able to properly edit, format, and structure my life’s work. If you think you can make your book the best it can be on your own, think again! There was so much here I had no idea about. Don’t go at it alone!

Take Notes!!!!

Jam packed with information! This has always been something in the back of my mind I wanted to accomplish in my life. But obviously with zero training and know how I never really thought about pursuing it. This gave me alot of food for thought and something I will be listening to again in the near future and taking notes. Excited to start this journey to see where it goes!

Nailed it!

I've really enjoyed listening to this book! and highly recommend it.

It has been a great desire of mine to publish my own books and listening to this book makes it sound so easy and doable! I like how the book splits the process over different chapters which gives me the confidence to tackle one piece at a time.

If you are thinking of writing your own book, I really recommend you listen to this and perhaps buy the ebook version so that you have a list to follow along with as you start your project!

Outstanding!

Wow what can I say? I came across this little gem this morning and after having it on in the background for a few minutes I had to go and get a pen, restart it from the beginning and jot down some of the ideas! I've always been interested in writing but never considered actually doing it. After listening to this, not only do I feel inspired to do so, I've also been equipped with the info of how to do it including every hurdled you'd probably encounter along the way from what to write about, how to design a book cover to how and to whom to market it to. I'm sure I'll be going back to it again to steer me along with my own book. Thank you Keith!

All you need to know in one convenient book!

This book helped me get organized and took me through the book writing process step by step. Very well written and narrated- I especially liked how it broke everything down into easy, bite-sized steps. And now, I know how to write a book! I'd highly recommend this audiobook to anyone who wants to make their long time dream come true and write a book!

Does what it says on the tin! 📖

An absolutely excellent resource for anyone looking to write and publish a book. Keith doesn’t waste time on unnecessary information, but gets down to business straight away. As a successful published author he certainly knows what he is talking about and gives you not only detailed step by step instructions on how to start and succeed with your project, but also what problems you might encounter on the way and how to best tackle them.
A very comprehensive and easily digestible format, no nonsense, tons of value!

I definitely learnt a lot from this, as I’m in process of book creation myself, wish me luck!!

Thanks Keith!

This book is awesome!!

If you've ever thought about writing your own non-fiction book but you are not sure how to start then this book is for you.
The author has created a step-by-step guide from researching your key words, planning an outline of your book, writing your book, book formatting to everything in between.

The advice and tips are simple and easy to follow, all you need is the time and commitment to start and then complete your book and hopefully see the money roll in...and the best thing is the feeling that you get when people say, how you've helped them solve their problem!

Great book, definitely recommend it.
